Licensure and Credentialing
- CMS: Provider licensure in the state they practice
- VA practitioners can practice in any state
- Is there interstate cooperation

- 0 for pharmacists
- Credentialing requirements
- TCC requires specific telemedicine training – not just medicine or nursing care
Legislative Issues

Future Directions
- Legal barriers
- More partnership
